Vegas Baby

Did I mention I went on a girls trip last weekend? Granny, my Aunt Julie, my sis-in-law Rachel, Baby Kate and I went to Las Vegas for a quick getaway. We had so much fun shopping, eating some awesome food, and playing some Bingo ;-). We saw the musical Jersey Boys and it was wonderful! My niece Kate was a doll and I can't imagine any other baby being as accommodating as she was.

People always ask me why I go to Vegas so much and I guess because there is a little something for everyone there and you don't have to go for a long time or spend a fortune to have a fun trip. You can find some really good deals right now and stay in some of the nicest hotels you've ever seen. In fact we stayed at the 5 star Encore Resort for only about $15 more a night than what we paid to stay at the Denton, TX Hampton Inn two weeks earlier. You can't beat that folks!

This photo was taken maybe 10 seconds before a bird pooped on me, I'm just lucky I guess ;-).

Sadly we only had one bingo among us this trip

Right behind Rachel on the street below a cop fired 4 times at an SUV that tried to flee after the cops tried to pull them over. Fortunately we were already inside the restaurant when that happened but we got to see all the crime scene investigation take place.

I'm telling you by the end of the trip I was craving a baby girl so bad! Kate is the most adorable sweet bundle of pink ever!

What a cutie!Glad you had such a good time...but don't see how the bird nailed you...Only the Lord can give the strength needed for whatever lies ahead. Praying!2 Corinthians 12:9-10 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.Prayer BearsMy email address

Know that you're always in my thoughts and prayers!Psalm 32:6-8 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found : surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him. Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah. I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go : I will guide thee with mine eye. Prayer BearsMy email address

On December 1, 2006 we welcomed beautiful twin baby boys into the world 101 days early (more than three months). We are excited to see what the Lord will do in the lives of Andrew Stephen (1 lb 11 oz, 13") & Adam Russel (2 lbs, 13 1/2") and pray that they will thrive and flourish. To read their story from the beginning select the December 2006 archives. In April of 2012 we welcomed our daughter Ally Michele. She was our termie, weighing in at 7lbs 1oz. God has blessed us and we are so grateful.
